the worse of the POV horror genre.


i must of seen about a dozen POV horror movies, and to be honest ive never really seen a terrible one until now.

cliched , unoriginal, but its main crime is the complete lack of build up. its just jumps straight into ridiculousness. how are you meant to scare the audience when none of the characters are scared? instead of being petrified, its 'oh cool' 'awesome'.

its really like the people who made this have no clue why the Blair witch, paranormal activity movies were successful in the first place.

I couldn't agree more. The biggest problem with this movie is it wasn't scary... at all. No build-up, no creep factor, terrible.
